How I came up with the name- Transcendental Tech Talk...

This blog was titled 'Random Thoughts' at first when I had come up with the post on 'Browser Wars', as it was quite random then. Then my roomie asked me to post on the games I had played, which I immediately did! At that point of time, I thought, maybe its time to change the name, which I did at once to 'Random Geeky Stuff'.

That name seemed pretty cool to me then (I know it's a bit lame, isn't it?). After a few more hours and a few more hits (especially the ones from Russia got me thinking), I thought maybe, I don't like it that much.

Firstly this blog is mostly about technical stuff, so 'Tech Talk'. I also needed something to precede this, and something sounding similar (remember alliteration?).

At the same time (coincidentally), I was listening to the song E.T. (by Katy Perry feat Kanye West), there's a point where Katy says,

'There is this TRANSCENDENTAL

On another level
Boy, you're my lucky star'

(it's basically an alien talking to another, so it's even more amusing)

However, the moment I heard it, I knew I had got my word! Transcendental basically means 'mystical', so, I guess, it adds a mystical feeling to this :D
